Feast of Saint Arnold

Saint Arnold Brewing Company’s annual Feast of Saint Arnold is a medieval shindig. It pays homage to the patron saint of brewers from whom they get their name. Arnold encouraged 11th-century Belgians to drink the beer he brewed in the Abbey of Saint Peter, saying that it was the gift of health. You could say that the feast is also a gift of health: Saint Arnold Brewing is donating the money raised at the feast to the Texas Children’s Hospital IBD Center/Gastroenterology Clinic, hoping to top last year’s donations of $12,000.
